Hua Manman hastily made amends.
"I should be the one who should be happy. To be summoned by Concubine Shu, I am really flattered and overjoyed."
Concubine Shu reluctantly accepted her explanation and spoke slowly.
"I'm sure you already know about the situation of the sixth prince. He refuses to eat or drink medicine now. I hope you can help him out. Don't let him make jokes about his health."
Hua Manman thought to himself, isn't it giving people poisonous chicken soup? She's good at it!
She agreed without hesitation.
"No problem, leave it to me!"
Concubine Shu was very satisfied with her positive attitude, and ordered someone to move to sit on the pier, motioned for her to sit, and asked someone to bring refreshments.
Li Yi's reaction was very cold.
He kept his lips pursed, his brows furrowed, and he looked sullen.
When Concubine Shu asked him if he was thirsty, he turned his head away and refused to communicate with her.
Concubine Shu seemed to have gotten used to this, and she didn't show any anger or embarrassment.
She then asked: "Hua Ruren came to visit you specially, don't you want to say hello to her?"
Li Yi still didn't speak.
At this moment, his whole body was full of resistance.
Concubine Shu wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Hua Manman.
"Your Majesty, just leave it to me. You must have worked hard these two days. Go and have a rest now, and don't ruin your body."
Concubine Shu also knew that she would not be seen by the sixth prince.
If she stays here, the sixth prince will definitely resist to the end.
There was no way, Concubine Shu could only stand up.
"Then I will leave first. You should enlighten the sixth prince well. As long as you can coax him well and make him eat and drink medicine obediently, I will benefit from you."
Because of her background, she has become accustomed to such a superior posture, and she is a little less scruples in speaking and doing things than ordinary people, and she is a little more flamboyant and casual.
So she didn't notice that after she said this, the sixth prince's expression became even uglier.
In his opinion, Concubine Shu's words were undoubtedly telling him that Hua Ruren was on her side.
They are all in the same group!
After sending Concubine Shu off, Hua Manman turned around and sat down by the bed.
She looked at the sixth prince who was still looking at the wall, and said.
"Okay, Concubine Shu has already left, you don't need to make trouble anymore."
Li Yi had already made up his mind that he would not talk to Hua Manman.
But at this moment, he was stimulated by Hua Manman's words.
He couldn't help but stare back at her, and retorted.
"I didn't make a fuss!"
Hua Manman casually picked up the grapes on the side, and said slowly while peeling the grapes.
"It's okay, you are still a child, and it's normal for children to be awkward."
Li Yi became even more angry: "I'm not a child anymore!"
Just because he was a child, everyone hid it from him and refused to tell him the real cause of the mother's concubine's death.
Also because he was still a child, the emperor sent him directly to Concubine Shu without even asking him a question, and forced him to recognize Concubine Shu as his concubine mother.
Children are not qualified to know the truth, nor do they have the right to refuse to be arranged.
What Li Yi hates most now is being called a child by others.
Hua Manman threw the grape meat into his mouth, and said while eating.
"But only children will threaten others by not eating or drinking medicine. If it is an adult, when encountering such a thing, he must first take care of his body, and then find a way to fight for his own rights."
Li Yi clenched his fists and said bitterly.
"Don't think that if you say this, I will listen to you and eat and drink medicine obediently. I know that you and Concubine Shu are in the same group, and I will not be fooled by you!"
Hua Manman found that this kid's personality seemed to have changed a lot.
Obviously when she saw him last time, he was just a poor kid who would cry when he ate glutinous rice balls.
Now he is like a hedgehog, with thorns all over his body, refusing everyone to approach him.
Hua Manman persuaded seriously.
"Everything must be positive, maybe I am not in the same group as Concubine Shu."
Li Yi looked at her suspiciously: "Then what are you here for?"
"Maybe I'm just here to deal with Concubine Shu, and grab some food and drink here."
After Hua Manman said this, he picked up a slice of melon that had been cut, and opened his mouth to take a big bite. The mouthful was sweet and very refreshing.
Li Yi: "..."
Reason told him that this woman must be lying, and she wanted to use this to lower his defenses.
But seeing how she ate with gusto was really convincing.
Li Yi questioned: "Is King Zhao unable to support you? Do you have to come to my place to eat and drink?"
Hua Manman explained seriously.
"You don't understand this. The food that you get from other people is always the most delicious. After all, if you have an advantage, don't take advantage of it."
Li Yi choked hard.
Hua Manman finished eating melons and watermelons, and continued eating grapes after eating watermelons.
The sweet aroma unique to fruit penetrated into Li Yi's nose.
Hearing the crisp sound of "clicking" and seeing Hua Manman's mouth full of juice happily, he couldn't help swallowing quietly.
He hadn't eaten much during this time, and he was already starving.
He was able to survive until now entirely by willpower.
At this time, there was someone eating in front of him, which was simply torturing his willpower.
Li Yi struggled to look away from those melon and fruit snacks, and said through gritted teeth.
"If you want to eat, go out and eat, don't stay here and annoy people."
Hua Manman grinned: "I won't go out, I will eat here."
Li Yi flattened his mouth, as if he was about to cry.
Hua Manman spoke first.
"You also said that you are not a child, only children cry at every turn."
Li Yi: "..."
It took him a lot of effort to force back the tears.
Hua Manman casually picked up a piece of red bean cake and handed it to him.
"You eat quietly, I won't tell others."
Li Yi salivated involuntarily when he smelled the sweet smell of red bean cake.
He resisted the urge to swallow, and said loudly.
"I will not eat!"
Hua Manman dangled the red bean cake in front of him, seductively.
"You really don't want to eat
This red bean cake is delicious, fragrant and sweet, it melts in your mouth. "
Li Yi wanted to refuse, but when he opened his mouth, Hua Manman took the opportunity to stuff the red bean cake into his mouth quickly and accurately.
He tasted the sweet taste on his tongue and subconsciously chewed it.
By the time he realized it, he had already eaten half of the red bean cake.
Hua Manman looked at him with a smile: "Your life was saved by Yichongyuan. If you really broke your body, the first person who will be sad will be Yichongyuan."
Li Yi was silent.
The reason why he refused to eat was to tell Concubine Shu that he would not compromise, let alone recognize her as concubine mother.
His mother and concubine will always be Yichongyuan alone.
Now that Hua Manman suddenly mentioned Yichongyuan, it seemed to have hit the softest part of his heart.
The pain made him lose the strength to refuse all of a sudden.
